Question
I am opening a Drive In theater in my hometown and require $400,000 in total startup capital. I will be seeking debt and equity investors as well as a crowdfunding campaign to secure initial funding as well as generate community interest.
Answer
Crowdfunding is best as a pre-launch strategy for products. For a drive in theater, you could leverage it indeed to create awareness and offer pre-launch tickets at interesting rates.
A bigger question would be in my opinion if investing in a drive in theater is a good idea considering the booming of streaming.... But I'm sure you are offering such an amazing and unique experience that an investment of 400k is justified.
